Another good weekend all around in agility for the crew.
Cash (Bear X Flyte) and Lora in NJ earned two excellent A standard legs with placement a second place on Friday. Now they’re even with 2 AX and AXJ legs. Soon they’re join everyone else in Ex B, Wahoo!
On Saturday, Decent day in agility today in the heat/humidity….
Snapshot Q in 24″ Ex B Standard, 4th place, popped her weaves poles and was VERY slow off the start line so no Q in Ex B JWW.
Nikon popped poles in standard, but Q’d in 24″ Ex B Jumpers 2nd place
Trey had a bad standard run, popped his weaves, fell off teeter, the missed his aframe contact, but Q’d in 24″ Ex B JWW with…….get this 3rd place behind Nikon. This is Trey’s 2nd MXJ leg (both with placements!) and his 5th straight Ex JWW leg. Granted Nikon ran the course in 30.01 and Trey ran it in 32 plus seconds! Not bad for a baby dog who just turned 2 at the end of April.
Sunday brought us downpours and scattered showers and was not much better than Saturday as far as the Qs go but had some really nice runs.
Nikon and Snapshot Q’d in Standard with a 2nd and a 4th place respectively. Trey had a very nice run but missed his aframe contact. Its interesting their times wound up — Nikon (46.11 seconds) , Trey (46.43 seconds) and Snapshot (46.86 seconds)! Nikon went pretty wide on one turn so lost some time there and Trey I was holding his Dogwalk/Teeter contacts.
Jumper was a lovely course but only Trey Q’d with. Unfortunately, I slipped and went to my knees while doing a front cross at the end of the poles with Nikon, although I was able to get my feet back under me sort of I was not really in position to handle the next couple obstacles so Nikon went off course. Snapshot popped her poles again and I am not sure why but NQ for her in jumpers.
